Precilayer India Pvt Ltd

Company: Precilayer Location: Vasai or Remote within India with periodic travel Function: Operations, Estimation, and Supplier Management Role summary Own the RFQ intake to quote handoff, translate customer requirements into manufacturable plans, and drive on-time, cost-effective production across CNC machining, 3D printing, vacuum casting, injection molding, and light assemblies. You will be the single-threaded owner for technical clarity, cost realism, and supplier execution. Key responsibilities RFQ Operations: Capture scope, drawings, STEP files, specifications, tolerances, finishing, inspection level, and delivery targets. Resolve ambiguities early. Costing and Estimation: Build should-costs for CNC, turning, additive, VC, IM, EDM, and secondary ops; estimate cycle times, setup, tooling, fixtures, and material yields; propose make-versus-buy with clear assumptions. DFM and Process Planning: Perform DFM reviews, define routings, work instructions, and inspection plans; map GD&T to process capability; select surface finish and heat treatment sequences. Supplier Management: Source and qualify suppliers pan-India for CNC and 3DP; issue RQs, compare quotes, negotiate lead time and cost, and place recommendations; track performance, NCRs, and corrective actions. Execution Control: Launch jobs, monitor WIP, clear blockers, maintain revision control, and ensure on-time delivery with the required documentation pack. Documentation: Maintain BOMs, routings, traveler packets, FAIRs when required, certificates of conformity, and traceability per ISO 9001 and customer requirements. Customer Interface: Join technical calls, present trade-offs, and align on risk, timeline, and acceptance criteria. Data and Systems: Keep ERP and trackers current; maintain cost libraries, machining data, and post-mortems for continuous improvement. Preferred candidate profile Education: B.E. or equivalent in Mechanical, Production, or Manufacturing Engineering. Experience: 3 to 7 years in precision manufacturing with direct exposure to CNC machining and at least one of SLS/MJF/DMLS or injection molding. Proven estimating ownership for small to mid-batch work. Technical depth: Strong on machining fundamentals, feeds and speeds, workholding, toolpath strategies, and fixture design. Comfortable reading complex drawings, GD&T, and callouts for surface finish, flatness, concentricity, and runout. Materials familiarity across aluminum, stainless steels, tool steels, bronzes, and engineering polymers. Working knowledge of post-processes: anodizing, passivation, electropolish, HT, blasting, grinding, and metrology basics. Software: Autodesk Inventor preferred; SolidWorks acceptable. CAM exposure is a plus. Competent with Excel or Google Sheets for cost models. Supply chain: Active network of reliable CNC and 3DP suppliers across India; ability to qualify, benchmark, and negotiate. Communication: Clear written and spoken English. Able to write crisp RFQs, DFM notes, and status updates. Work style: Detail orientation, deadline discipline, and calm under pressure. Bias to document and close loops. Success metrics (first 6 to 12 months) RFQ turnaround time and quote win rate. On-time delivery rate and first-pass yield. Cost variance versus should-cost at PO and at close. Supplier on-time and NCR rate trend. Rework and deviation count trending down. Nice to have Exposure to medical or aerospace documentation practices. Hands-on with CMM, vision inspection, or gauge R and R. Basic scripting for data cleanup or quoting templates. What to include in your application Two examples of complex RFQs you converted to firm quotes, with your process plan summary. A list of five suppliers you trust for CNC or 3DP and why. Your hourly rate assumptions for milling and turning, and how you build cycle-time estimates. Role & responsibilities Preferred candidate profile
